Spear to the Heart - Paperback

by Anna Berdine (Author)

Elspeth was determined to break free and live a better life but she needed the help of a rugged and, okay, pretty livid (with her at least) rebel leader who lived outside her mountain in the surrounding caves where it was dangerous for her to travel. Elspeth had a lot of secrets and a lot of people depending on her and didn't have room for the distraction of an enticing man in her life.
Geir? Well, he'd given up on women years ago after the rebellion. The only possible women in his life were too vain and self-indulgent for his tastes. When he first met Elspeth he summed her up with two thoughts: "God she is beautiful...and maybe a little dumb." It took him a while before he realized first impressions weren't necessarily right. It took even longer for him to work his way through all of Elspeth's complicated and crowded personal life. Then there was her horse, Fritz, who was trying to kill him.
Things might have gone a lot more smoothly if Elspeth hadn't put Geir in chains and held him captive.
